In Tokyo, Japan there is a house with almost no privacy for the people that live there. It is built completely out of glass. It was designed by award winning Tokyo architect, Sou Fujimoto. It is three stories tall and 914 square feet. He was inspired to design this house by the concept of a tree with perches on high and low branches. This is why the house has perches. This house has 21 floor panels. These panels are heated to make it comfortable in the winter time. Even though this house is made of glass that doesn't mean that is doesn't have any privacy. There are curtains in this house so that there can be at least some privacy to the people that are living there. Check out the video link below to see the inside of this amazing house.
